In this video, WhyGolf addresses why golfers frequently miss short putts left or right despite having good speed. The instructor demonstrates 'The Putting Thing' training aid, which uses adjustable gates and an alignment rail to help golfers practice starting their putts accurately on line.
Missing short putts left or right is often caused by off-center face angle or stroke path at impact.
Adjustable putting gates provide immediate feedback on whether your ball and putter head start on line.
Consistently practicing with start-line alignment aids improves accuracy on short putts.
